See, this is... cool, but everything about it is wrong =P\r\r1) I'm not sure why standard edition. The general problem people have with pre-order bonuses is they are holding off to get the physical collector's edition. The standard edition is literally just what you can get in the game now, digitally, but with a box, with nothing else really in it. Which I guess is cool for some people, but that leads me to...\r\r2) The box looks different from what the retail box will be after launch. If people want physical so they have the box for collection's sake... I don't think they would (at least, I don't) appreciate having "PRE-PURCHASE EDITION" stamped along the top of the box, along with the level boost advertisement right there. That's like when I wanna buy a book and it's got the shop's stickers and deals all over the cover - I don't care about the ads, I want a good looking, pristine book. I hate stickers, and these seem to be part of the box's art.\r\rI appreciate the attempt at resolving a long-time issue many players have had, but I'm not sure who this is really targeting. People who don't want the collector's edition but do want a physical box for collection's sake, and want the pre-order bonuses in-game now, and are willing to have a different, less official-looking box than they'd get by waiting for launch anyway?

I agree Soeroah, I like to collect the standard edition boxes but the red banner puts me off buying the pre-purchase edition.

Ha! There's a Lightforged Draenei being boosted! Too bad you need to farm daily, for 3 weeks or even more of reputation before even thinking of creating one, ha-ha!

For people who either can't or don't want to use a credit card on the internet, or for an alternative way to gift the expansion to someone, those are the sorts of people this type of stuff is targeted towards.\r\rI very much doubt this is meant to be any sort of answer or response to the "I want to preorder CE and still play now" situation that people bring up. It's likely it's just meant to be a way to buy the expansion without having to do so online.

I thought I heard something like that.

I thought I heard something like that.\r\rThey did, this is just a more direct method. It also cuts out the "middleman", so to speak, for this particular purchase. This way, you can just buy the expansion itself rather than spending money at the store, going home, applying it to your account, and then purchasing the expansion. You're going to be there anyway to buy the balance, why not skip all those steps and go directly to just buying the expansion itself?

I'd buy a pre-order box like this if it was for the CE.

An ad-plastered empty box with a code inside for a standard edition?\rWhat's the point of this again?

I bought the Pre-Order Box for Warlords of Draenor because I have boxes for all Wow Addons and want to continue that, but that at least had a poster in it so a little bonus you can't get digital, but this one apparently has nothing except for the code.Thats... underwhelming.

Too bad you need to farm daily, for 3 weeks or even more of reputation before even thinking of creating one, ha-ha!\r\rMost people have already done any grinding involved on one character as part of playing the game. I had 3 of the allied races unlocked before they were even available, and the last was easy to complete, even though I likely will not be playing one.

Can Blizzard fix the issue that CE collectors have two keys.. Blizzard sugest that we CE collectors can sell or give away the second key to somebody else is NUTS. It is easy to fix by Blizzard. If you addin a second key for the same game(expension) then add 3 months gametime. Issue solved. \r\rNo now we CE collectors need to find somebody else for the second useless key but we are willing to pay more because we want the physical Collectors Edition. So we CE collectors need to wait months for accesing the allied races while players who pay less have acces to them now.

Funny. That looks kind of like the boxart for the Real-Time Strategy period of Warcraft history.
